Tis the season for stick-to-your-bones home cookin...so I broke out the crockpot!
This wasn't anything fancy. Just your normal chili ingredients:
1 1/2 C. Dry Black and Great Northern Beans (I was out of Kidney Beans)- soaked overnight
1 Sm. Onion and 4 Cloves of Garlic - sautéed in EVOO
1 Lg. can of Crushed Tomatos + 1 can of Water + 1 TBLS of Sugar
1 Red Pepper - finely chopped
1 1/2 lbs. Cubed Venison (Beef or Pork) - browned in EVOO and a generous coat of seasonings:
Chilli Powder
Ancho Chili Powder
Chipotle Chili Powder
Cayenne Chili Powder (in moderation)
Garlic Powder
Black Pepper
Salt
Cumin
Oregano
Add everything to the crockpot and cook on low all day.
Remove and shred the meat, if you desire. Return to the pot and season to taste. I usually need to add more chili powder, garlic powder and salt at this point.
Serve with your favorite toppings: cheese, onions, sour cream, etc...
Or over macaroni noodles (these were gluten free)
Stay warm!
